In the birth announcements in one of the broadsheets at the weekend there was a Thomson. It struck me as being a little unusual, but Harrison and Grayson seem quite mainstream, so how about Johnson?

Names like McKenzie, Taylor and Riley are considered unisex so why not Johnson?

To add a touch of klass, why not make it Johnson-May?

What about Katie 😬 too soon?

KitKat1985 · 03/02/2020 20:11

You'll have to pronounce it "brexitler" to rhyme with "hitler".

Borya is the diminutive of Boris, so there's another one.

Or just go the whole hog, Alexandra Borya de Pfeffel Johnsona, nickname Lying Scumbag.

BruceAndNosh · 03/02/2020 20:01

Only if you use it as a middle name.
With the first name of BollocksTo

Bad idea, 48% of the population won't like her, of the remaining 52% quite a few will complain that she isn't what they were expecting her to be like.
And 99% will be totally sick of her before she even turns up

Nigella Faragina sounds like Regina Phalange's British cousin Grin

00100001 · 03/02/2020 19:54

Is it pronounced Brex-itta, brex-eeta, or Jane?

Quizeerascal · 03/02/2020 19:46

Borisina works nns could be Sina or Bo

ChangedMyNameYetAgain · 03/02/2020 19:17

Yunka Tusketta van der Diddle

HerRoyalFattyness · 03/02/2020 19:16

How about Borisette?

borntobequiet · 03/02/2020 19:16

And her twin sister Europa

ChangedMyNameYetAgain · 03/02/2020 19:15

Widdecombella?

ChangedMyNameYetAgain · 03/02/2020 19:14

Ooh, I like Nigella Faragina, but could you get Ann Widdecombe in there too?

Nigella-Anne Faragina Widdecombe Diddle

It's getting more common these days to take a common name and add a slightly exotic twist to it - stick a 'van' or 'de' in there, or even an umlaut.

Hm, I'd have thought Brexita's family would disapprove of that sort of foreign muck.

Wouldn't it be better to find a good Old English name, preferably one which can be spelled using a good Old English character such as a thorn or yogh?

ChangedMyNameYetAgain · 03/02/2020 19:11

Other suggestions:
Bregzita/Bregsita
Europa-Unity
Schengena
Remaine

ChangedMyNameYetAgain · 03/02/2020 19:09

L'eve is enough.

You could experiment with spellings and nicknames.
Leev, Leeve, Laeve, Lieve or, if you have (Northern) Irish connections, Liamh.

ofwarren · 03/02/2020 19:01

How do you you pronounce that? Is it Brex eeta or Bregz eeta?

Fannia · 03/02/2020 18:59

My dh will annoyingly pronounce it Brit-exitta.

BecauseReasons · 03/02/2020 18:59

How about L' Eva?

Inspired! And on-trend. Kudos. Grin

CloudPop · 03/02/2020 18:56

Yeah I like Xita and Mona. It is of its time, true, but I also think it has staying power... and probably more than half of people will like it
